#MakeShitMonday, in which I make something other than crochet, for a change! 😊
I bought a gently-used Jetson Orin Nano (thank you @Viss!) to play with self-hosted whisper, paperless-gpt, etc. There were a couple of nice cases for it on Printables, so I picked one that looked pretty solid and took a whack at it...
The bottom plate had adhesion problems late in the print, started warping, and came entirely unstuck at about 97% completion. Super frustrating! (It's amusing that Octoprint has a "so close" achievement for prints that are canceled after 95%, though - at least I got a good laugh out of that.)
Our printer is in our basement, and we were in & out of both the door to the upstairs and the door to the outside while it was printing, so I'm wondering if that affected the print. I kicked off the upper portion, stayed out of the basement for a few hours, and it came out just fine, so now I'm cargo-culting about basement airflow. 🙄
We spent the weekend up at the New River Gorge, and I forgot to start the filament dryer this morning, so I won't get to try again til tomorrow. Going to bump the bed temp up 5° and hope that fixes it... (And stay out of the basement again! 😁)

#makeShitMonday, #baking edition...
We have a huge patch of muscadine vines in our side yard - I haven't been gleaning them this year, since we've been busy Having Adventures. But last week I got out with a rake and a couple of tarps and harvested two 3L tubs of fruit!
I separated out the wrinkly/ugly/blemished grapes to use for juice and still ended up with about 4L of big, pretty muscadines. Washed them all and froze a bunch of them in 2-cup batches for future halving and seeding...
